“Katsiaryna has taken care of our puppy a few times both for drop in visits and house sitting. She has always been very communicative and patient with our pup who is a bit of a handful 😅 also super cute puppy pictures! A+”

About: For over 13 years, I’ve been taking care of dogs! I have 3 dogs at home myself, a Havanese poodle and two German shepherds! My dogs are on the older side and aren’t able to go on walks as much so I wanted to join Rover. When I’m away from home and miss my dogs, also volunteer at the animal shelter to do doggie day out and bring shelter dogs for walks and a pup cup. I pay careful attention to body language for dogs to make them feel comfortable. I just graduated from UCI so I’ve been readjusting back at home. When I get the chance, I love going out and trying the next big thing! When I’m home, I love playing with my dogs and snuggling up with them because they’re so cute I know safety and trust is the utmost importance so I will be sure to communicate with you if issues were to arise. I make sure that the area is familiar, safe and enclosed before letting a dog off-leash and walks are always on-leash. I have trained multiple dogs to learn basic commands and signals with treats and positive reinforcements.

“Katie did an amazing job with Raven! Our dog is reactive and needed to meet new people slowly. Katie was very mindful of her and followed all of our directions! She also gave our dog so much love during her visit - rest assured that your pet will be taken care of !”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 8 so I have experience with young dogs, senior dogs, puppies (5-8 pups!), small or big dogs. Whether it's helping an anxious shy dog feel safe, a puppy get trained, making sure a senior dog is comfy and has had their meds, or getting the wiggles out of a playful energetic dog, I've done it! And I've done so with lots of compassion, patience, and care. I'm working part time as a music teacher Mon-Thur in the afternoons so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your fur family member! I am generally open Friday-Sunday and also during mornings/late evenings Mon-Thur. I care for dogs in their own home by keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I follow all care instructions closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and send regular photo updates. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away :)

About: My family has had our dog Scooby since he was 3 weeks old and he is now 6 years old. I’ve trained him since he was young how to behave and he knows plenty of tricks too! I also used to dog sit/babysit for family members often. I currently have an internship and am busy Tuesdays-Thursdays but I’m available on Mondays, Fridays, and weekends when needed. My schedule can be flexible so let me know and I might be able to accommodate! I prefer to travel to clients within the East Bay Area. Safety is always my top priority in mind, for both your pet and myself. I understand that some dogs need time to adjust to new people and I always want to create a comfortable environment for them.

About: I had my first dog at nine, but cared for friends and families’ pets before that to prepare myself. I’ve always been good with animals and would be honored to care for yours in your absence. I’m also decent at getting them to take any medication that they might need. I am in between jobs at the moment and have my own transportation so caring for your babies would be at the top of my priorities I will tailor care for your pets based on your needs and preferences. Let me know your pet’s routine so that I don’t disrupt it too much. I will, of course, use crates if needed, and doors and locks will always be checked.

About: Ive worked in the veterinary field for almost 12 years- most of my experience has been in specialty and emergency medicine and have been lucky to help all sizes and ages of fur babies and their families. I have seen the distress of both the pet and their pet parent and always strive to be a pillar of confidence and ensure your pet is in good hands and will be taken care of. My goal is to build trust with your pet and also with your family. I understand how hard it can be to travel and have someone care for them and this is why i treat all animals like my own. I always put safety at the forefront when i'm pet sitting and always happy for check in's or anything that puts you at ease to know your loved one is taken care of while you are away. I am currently freelancing and enjoying getting my dose of animal care by assisting my house mates older dog. I lost my best fur friend over a year ago and currently helping other pets feel cared and loved until im ready for a new friend. Doors and locks are always checked and no pet is left unattended. I typically adjust my schedule to the needs of your pet while in my care.

About: From reptiles to dogs, I am an animal lover through and through! I have 4 of my own fur babies (2 dogs & 2 cats) and still have so much love and care to give to yours! I am affectionately known as “auntie” to my friend’s fur babies and will not hesitate to help any animal in need. From fostering & socializing kittens, to stopping on the freeway to save a kitten stuck in barbed wire (spoiler: I adopted her), to helping a lost dog find her home, and to finding and transporting an injured baby crow to a Wildlife Hospital, my dedication to animals is unmatched. Your pet will always be in kind and loving hands with me! I do have a full-time job during the work week but I am available weeknights and weekends! I’m available for short-term and long-term care for all animals! My pets, and soon to be yours hopefully, always have my undivided attention! I love taking my dogs for hikes, long walks, dog parks and anything to get them socialized, exercised and happy! My cats are basically treated like royalty in my home. Anything you pet needs, I will be there to provide it!

“Krystle was amazing with our cat! She helped with all the things I asked for and went above and beyond and helped with other things like ant invasion when we were away. She was extremely patient and sweet with our cat that was hiding under the couch during her visits. She was able to get our cat to play with her after couple of days, thanks to Krystle’s gentle approach. I was comfortable being away and knew that my cat was being treated well and taken care of. I 100% recommend Krystle! She’s truly the best. I’ll definitely reach out to her if I need a sitter again.”

About: Hi! I’m Stef, and I’m a caring, responsible, and patient person who truly enjoys being around dogs. I love giving them attention, affection, and a safe, comfortable environment where they can feel at home. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I’ll make sure your pup feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available during the day on weekdays while my child is at school, and I have plenty of time to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m also available on weekends depending on my schedule. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable home where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I carefully follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions. I make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated with love and patience. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so owners know how their pet is doing.

This is my second review for Kim, as she has been our go-to for watching our 3 cats this year. She is a very detail orientated person, and her care has exceeded our expectations. She quickly addresses any issues that may come up and is communicative. If you need a sitter who understands cats and can really put them at ease, she's the one!

Luella took really good care of my two cats. Her visit notes were very detailed. She took extra care to look for the cats to make sure they were okay. She also went the extra step to clean up their messes. Her communication is excellent and I could tell she has a lot of love and affection for animals. I would book her again.

Lia was an excellent communicator throughout the petsitting process and made me feel very safe about leaving my beloved cat son in her care! She clearly loves animals and knows a lot about how to care for them—including those with special medical needs. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future and would highly recommend her care.

This was my first time using Rover and booking a pet care service, and Jocelyn made the entire process so easy and stress-free. She was very responsive, asked thoughtful questions I hadn’t even considered, and always kept me updated during her visits. My dog, Skye, can be reactive and takes time to warm up to new people, but Jocelyn was incredibly patient and understanding. She never pushed Skye beyond her comfort level and let her build trust at her own pace. By the third day, I could already see Skye becoming more comfortable with her, which meant a lot to me. It was clear that Jocelyn genuinely cared about Skye’s well-being and treated her with kindness, patience, and respect. I am so grateful for the care she provided and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you, Jocelyn, for taking such great care of my girl!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - San Lorenzo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in San Lorenzo is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $43 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 13,873 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across San Lorenzo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in San Lorenzo. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
